Very refreshing and delicious! I'll be making this all summer. I am looking forward to trying strawberries, raspberries, etc. as well. This is a fun summer lemonade.

This blackberry lemonade is fantastic! When I made it I poured the strained blackberry puree on the top before serving and it floated on the lemonade below- stunning in a clear glass pitcher! Then I mixed it up and poured it over ice and it was gone in mere minutes. This is now what everyone asks me to bring to summer gatherings.

I have been using this recipe ever since it first appeared in Gourmet . It is summer in a glass.

Did not like this. Made it with Splenda so maybe that was the problem, but the flavors did not seem to work.

Tastes fabulous and looks beautiful in
a clear pitch. I like it best when it's
ice cold. Perfect combo of tart and
sweet.
Can't wait to make it for my boyfriend,
the lemonade fanatic.
